Unfortunately it's not limited to slash. I've seen this kind of thing when it's male/male friendship fic in many fandoms. I've got this genfic rec. LJ comm. on my viewing list and most of the time I'm afraid to read the fic if it's shep, mckay.
I'm tempted to ask the authors how they weir in each fic I come across that isn't Shep/Weir.
It's sad how most S/W shippers I've come across respect the relationship John and Elizabeth have with Rodney while many of the Sheppard/Mckay fans don't respect the relationship John and Rodney have with Elizabeth.
I don't know why it is either. The mysogeny is rather heavy in fandom in general. The men can do no wrong, but the women shall be burned in effigy for all their mistakes.
There is this fandom I read fanfic in. It's Magnificent seven. It's set in the old west. There's a female recurring character. She was a rather sheltered woman and she had an attitude towards prostitutes. She didn't understand how women could fall into that and sometimes they had no choice. But she had an eye opening experience and I think by the end of the episode she changed her attitude. But fandom wouldn't let it go. they continued to harp on it. And continued to portray her as a spoiled snob.
And of course she was a pathetic man chaser trying to get her evil claws into the leading man. ;)
That's apparently what happened to Sam too on sg-1. Poor Jack was being stalked by an obsessed woman who took credit for everyone elses work. ;-)

I guess I'll just have to write my own fic.
